About Our School


Opened in 1989, Lakeridge School has been a proud home to a vibrant and diverse community of learners from kindergarten to Grade 8. With approximately 500 students, we offer a welcoming and inclusive environment that supports the growth and development of every child.

At Lakeridge, we understand that each student is unique, and we provide a range of educational options to meet their needs. Our school features both traditional classrooms and Montessori programs, offering a well-rounded curriculum that includes core French (Grades 5-8), band (Grades 6-8), resource support, and daily physical activity. These opportunities are designed to nurture not only academic growth but also physical, creative, and social development.

In addition to our rich academic offerings, we engage students through a variety of extracurricular activities. Whether it’s sports, house leagues, or the leadership opportunities provided by our Lakeridge Leaders program, there’s something for everyone to get involved in and grow their skills outside the classroom.

We are proud to be a dynamic, multicultural school, with students and families from all over the world joining our community. This diversity is something we celebrate, and we believe that when families and schools collaborate, students achieve greater success. Our active School Community Council and Parent Council create opportunities for parents to get involved by planning events like family literacy and math nights, as well as community potlucks that celebrate the rich cultures within our school.

Lakeridge School is also home to a preschool program for three- and four-year-old children and Kid's Time, our before- and after-school program, providing additional support for families and a safe, engaging environment for younger learners.

At Lakeridge, we are dedicated to creating learning experiences that inspire all students to reach their full potential. Our goal is to ensure that every student feels Known, Valued, and Believed In as they embark on their educational journey with us.

We invite you to explore our website and learn more about the programs, activities, and opportunities that make Lakeridge School a special place for students and families alike.​​​

Lakeridge School Vision Statement

We believe that all students and staff can succeed and grow when given opportunities, freedom, trust and responsibilities in conjunction with high expectations for academic and social progress in a caring, sharing, democratic environment.

A closer look at our vision:
  • ​​Student Achievement: Our students have achieved high recognition at all levels and have participated in local, provincial and national mathematics, science and geography challenges. 
  • Student Learning: We believe that literacy in reading, writing and numeracy is key to student success. We promote reading at school and at home. We practice quality, daily physical education. Our fine arts program includes strong music, band, visual art, dance, drama and drumming components.
  • Student-centred Extracurricular Activities: Our students benefit by having the opportunity to be active in intramurals, teams (e.g., track, basketball, volleyball, cross country), student leadership, and volunteer service​​.
  • Outdoor Education: Our students learn about their environment by participating in extensive class field trips at all grade levels and experience our local community offerings through major excursions (e.g., Batoche, Fort Carlton, Pike Lake, Moose Jaw, Christopher Lake, Redberry Lake,​ and skiing).
  • Professional Specialties: Our school benefits from having a professionally staffed Learning Resource Centre. Several professional specialists serve the students of Lakeridge School, including resource teachers to support student learning needs, a physical education specialist, a band specialist, a Core French specialist and arts education specialists.
